Fri, 22 Sep 2017 12:03:43 +0000http://thewoodpecker.net/?p=2518Since I have to carry my propane tanks to the cottage, I need something to keep them straight inside the pickup box. So I made something, obviously out of wood.

Fri, 15 Sep 2017 13:08:11 +0000http://thewoodpecker.net/?p=2511In our last vacation at the cottage, Renée and I built a different type of chaise longue. In this episode, you can see how our vision of a chair is different.

I also invite you to vote for your favorite chair on my Facebook page.

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 12:02:53 +0000http://thewoodpecker.net/?p=2495I wanted my logo on my saw, so I tried a new way to apply it; at least for me. Along the way, I made some tests to try to improve the technique.

Fri, 11 Aug 2017 12:03:34 +0000http://thewoodpecker.net/?p=2477This is the last episode of my bandsaw build. At the end of this episode, I have a fully fonctional and completed saw.

On top of finishing the saw, I’m testing the vibration, give its average weight and how much the saw cost me to build.
